TheBoost said:  Why does being a parent mean that someone has no right to speak out or have concern with the media being produced to educate their children and marketed at their children?

Who said that?  After accusing Warbler of setting up a straw man, you proceed to set up one of your own.

Why must it be a ridiculous slippery slope?

It's not that it must be: it's just that some of us are concerned that it might be.  All too often it seems that restrictions on what people can do that seem inconsequential -- and even reasonable -- at the time begin to mount up, and they are harder to reverse than they are to put in place, which is why people are wary of them.  Like Warbler, I have no objection to seatbelts being put in future shows, but reanimating old material to put in seatbelts seems as ridiculous to me as the slippery slope apparently appears to you.
